正文(英文) | We are delighted to announce the Royal Meteorological Society (RMetS) Awards and Prize Winners for 2019, recognising people and teams who have made exceptional contributions relating to weather, climate and associated disciplines. This year’s awards received some outstanding entries, with recipients being held in high regard across the international community. Due to social distancing guidance, it will sadly not be possible to have a physical presentation ceremony. However, we are taking this opportunity to showcase each of the 18 worthy winners on our website, outlining their achievements alongside a winner’s acceptance message. They will also be showcased on our social media channels throughout the week of 22 June 2020. The internationally renowned climate scientist, Professor Keith Shine has been awarded the Mason Gold Medal, which ranks alongside the Symons Gold Medal as the premier award of the Society and awarded on alternate years to a Fellow of the Society. Professor Shine’s nomination recognises his substantial contributions to our fundamental understanding of the climate system and his ground-breaking research. His close involvement with the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Scientific Assessments, also included a share in the Nobel Peace prize for his contributions to the 2007 IPCC report. He is a significant voice in the public understanding of climate change and his tireless and selfless support of other scientists has earned him unrivalled respect and several prestigious awards. Professor Shine said: “I am delighted to receive the 2019 Mason Gold Medal. Early in my career, the Antarctic ozone hole was discovered. It was a concerning, puzzling, exciting few years; playing some small part in unravelling the mystery was an important formative experience, as was involvement in subsequent national and international ozone assessments. My involvement in early assessments of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change set a lasting direction of travel for my research and teaching. So many colleagues and students have played a major role in the scientific journey that has led to this award. Thank you!” The 2019 Honorary Fellowship has been awarded to former RMetS President, Professor Tim Palmer. As a theoretical physicist and meteorologist, Professor Palmer has led a revolution in the fields of weather and climate prediction. He has challenged old ideas and has changed the way weather and climate are viewed both by the public, the weather and climate prediction community, and scientists in other disciplines. The techniques he has championed are now standard in operational weather and climate prediction around the world and are central for reliable decision making for many commercial and humanitarian applications. Professor Palmer said: “I am truly delighted and humbled to be made an Honorary Fellow of the Society. The Met Soc has been a very large part of my professional life for over 40 years… It was a wonderful honour to have spent two amazing years as President, one that I will always cherish.” Thank you to all our members, colleagues and associates who nominated individuals for the awards this year.
